Here is a possible option for you....

+1. I've had problems getting a suitable set, and after spending a lot of money with some companies mentioned above, didn't get a pair to suit, as my internal lugs are 'funny'.  Pete @ Proshock got it right first time.  Top company. 

Fair enough but (as others have said) he was a highly experienced professional pilot flying an agreed routine which would have been seen and agreed by the 'authorities'.  He's no clown.

It is completely out of order to threaten violence to anyone on any forum.  Particularly a shooting one and you the owner of a firearm.

Ok, a bit more explanation. The reason that a family's background can be of importance is 'access to 'weapons'.  The police will, quite rightly, do all they can to make sure they don't fall into the wrong hands.   I'm not saying anything re Hamish and his family as I've said several times I...

Just because you and 3 mates have got SGCs does not mean that some forces don't check things carefully, depending on how they do things and what comes up when they do their preliminary checks.  I know of several people who have had problems in getting both SGCs and FACs due to 'history', so...

 When did you get your certificate?  Things are somewhat different now than a number of years ago. Licensing authorities can and do look at many sources of information including social media and the applicant's family and acquaintances when granting both shotgun certificates and FACs during...

Nobody can possibly give you an insightful answer with the little information you have given. It would be useful to know why 'her family were known to the police about 20 years ago'. Are her family still 'known' to the police? There are some situations where you could indeed have a problem.

Does anyone know if the results are published anywhere yet?  I don't think they're been updated for this month on the Churchill's website.

​On the 'whole debacle', the key point surely is that the top 5 or 10 competitors displayed some awesome shooting and for Ben Husthwaite to straight the shoot off was incredible.   What is appalling is that one person can misuse social media to create a storm over a false allegation and in so...

I bought a couple of these a few years ago and they were fine.  Good price and still did what they were supposed to do.

Brill.  That's one of the funniest clips I've seen in a long time.  And I'm a cyclist.... ;)

Not strange at all, IMHO.  I saw this post that you've quoted last night and several other posts that stated facts / what people saw and these were removed from her thread within minutes, despite being reposted.  And then apparently the posters got blocked.  Gaz’s post above lasted only a matter...

​No it's not, I don't see how scale has anything to do with it. The rules allow for a shooter to call a 'distraction'.  There is no doubt that there was reason to call one - a ref has posted above that he saw it. Two other people saw a bird as well.  So as this thread is about a specific...

​Must say that I've rarely seen in the field the sort of shooting skill demonstrated by the likes of Husthwaite, Digweed, Lee, Winser, Hendrick and Faulds.  So maybe we're talking apples and oranges here.  Most/some of these guys are professionals so some 'fussiness' is not unreasonable nor...

There is some doubt apparently to the species of bird, but not that there was a bird!!.  In fact, there may have been two birds.... And that is apparently fair reason for a 'distraction' - from the rules.     As far as I can make out from the foul mouthed and abusive thread, only 2 posters in...

Cracking guns those.  I was within a millisecond of buying one of those myself just about a year ago when I saw John at Southdown.....

​As mentioned early in this thread re the possibility of sour grapes, it seems to me that there's a large measure of sour grapes from the one doing the complaining.  And some of the accusations seem to be more than a little personal..... I spoke to someone earlier tonight who was actually...

Was the person making the accusations actually there when the distraction was given.   What I do know is that when I was shooting at Churchill's last week, a live pigeon was within inches of getting a load of shot from me.  Pity I wasn't as close to the clay.

I've just checked and for those locals that shoot on Wed and Thurs evenings, the late shooting is still on for this week - (even with the competition on Fri and Sat). Well done EJ Churchills!
